I got this camaro in high school and blew up the 350 in a couple of months. I immediately started building a bog block for it and had it minus bearingg and rings when my brotgher started our pasture on fire and burned down the camper it was stored in. So I out the car in a barn and it has set since 1991. A buuddy was gwetting a divorce and built a 427 for his 55 chevy and i bought it from him. So that got me going. i still had the rock crusher out of it. So I drug it home saturday and I need to start getting her together.

 

Sounds like a great basis for a project! Hard to beat the 427 BBC. Probably the best big Chevy engine ever built in my opinion. Hope you post pictures as you proceed with your Camaro build!

 

Yup needs some photos.

 

I came across a Borg Warner Super t-10 for 150$. via a quick google search I think i did okay. it looks good internally. Now do i run the t-10 or the m21?

 

No question here; the Super T10 trumps a M20/M21.

 

I agree. Mine has taken more 5g clutch drops than any trans should have to. Plus 150 is a great deal.

 

Thanks guys...

Nice work, and it looks like a solid start! I sure hope you're not getting under the car while it's sitting on jack stands on that incline! Looks scary to me!

 

Good start! Keep the pics coming.
